My new Send Love Today recipient of my silly cards is Caleb and he is 9 years old and has had a very bad year. He likes football so I checked out the colors for the Corn Huskers and used a digi image from Dude Time Doodles which you can find here . They have such cute images and are so nice in helping old people like me when they have a problem. I am also making this exact card for Bobby Riddle but I have not found a color yet for a New Mexico team to color the image. Bobby had a terrible accident and you can find the story here . Before the accident he helped a lot of kids and we want to encourage him to fight and get better and so my card for him will reflect him as a coach. Also, this was taken in the afternoon with the sun shining on my tree. One image was too light and this one is almost too dark. I kind of like the idea of a night football game though. I did little plays on each corner - go right - go middle - go right and stay (stay? I think I have done too many dog cards lately or they could pull them off sides!!) If anyone needs me as a assistant coach....I am available for the right price!!!
Thank you for looking. comments always appreciated.
Hugs to all of my Sisters!!!!

That image is fabulous. Love the goal post and football. Now about those plays, where is the yellow directional line Madden used, huh? All kidding aside, Sis you did just a fantastic job here. Love it! TFS :0)

Connie Jo - This is FAB and A+bsolutely the bomb! I love what you did with this little leaguer! Great addition of the goal post and background paper. I personally cannot wait to see what else you create!

I have no idea how you made that goal post, but I LOVE it!
It just makes the card! After all the SNOW, isn't it just nice to have a little sun to make the shadows?!
